Over the next few weeks Jenny and Jeremys friendship grew stronger. They did everything together, but suddenly Jenny had this nervous feeling that someone was following her everywhere, and that she was constantly being watched everywhere she went. Even at school and at home she didn't feel safe anywhere anymore.
"Whats wrong with me Jenny said to herself" as she looked around while she waited for the school bus one morning.
But she couldn.t get rid of the feeling that someone has been stalking her, and that frightened her badly, HONNNK Jenny jumped in fear but it was just the school bus and she climbed aboard "good morning Ted Jenny said to the driver."
"And good morning to you too Jenny he replied." "Hey Jenny over here Jeremy called" and Jenny sat next to him and hugged him. "good morning she replied" after she buckled her seatbelt.
"I have a present for you Jenny he said" as he took a small box out of his coat pocket and opened it, and Jenny gasped as Jeremy held up a silver chain necklace with a pink heart shaped pendant, and when Jenny looked closer at the pendant she saw her name engraved on it. "Jeremy how did you ever afford this Jenny asked."
Well your parents helped with that part. "I picked it out and they took care of the rest Jeremy said." "I love it thank you Jenny said" as she tried the necklace on. "Its beautiful and its a perfect fit Jeremy replied." "Jeremy you are the sweetest boy in New York Jenny told him" as she laced her fingers with his and they both blushed and smiled shyly at each other.
But Jenny was right to feel frightened because unknown to her Jeremys mother had some of the men on her late husbands payroll watching and following her wherever she went. And she had worse things in store for Jenny. Jeremy really is a kind and goodhearted boy, Jenny thought as she looked at the gorgeous necklace he bought which was around her neck.
"Oh Jenny you might want to take that off and put it away Jeremy said." "yes you're right somebody might try to steal it Jenny replied." as she removed the necklace and put it in her coat pocket.
